During 4K signal transmission to the TV via HDMI, the colour information can be slightly compromised, resulting in less-than-ideal color shading and gradation. With 4K Pure Direct, all color information and full resolution is transmitted to the TV, so that the picture retains its crisp, rich colors as intended in 4K Ultra HD.

Our 4K TVs support multiple HDR formats, such as HDR10 found on UHD Blu-ray discs and, with the 2017 models, now Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG), the HDR format developed by the BBC and Japan's NHK.
